I've read (I think) all the basics but have a couple of questions about the SLAM process:

1) How long does it take freshly added LQ to dissolve in the pool. In other words, how long after adding do I get an accurate reading on the new levels of FC/CC?

2) Once the desired level of FC is reached, how long should it remain there before letting it drop? For example, if my target FC is 22, should I maintain it that high throughout a sunny day so that the overnight loss test is based on 22?
